Question

Difficulty: MediumAzure Arc

A municipal power grid operator runs containerized grid monitoring software on local Kubernetes clusters located in physical substations. By onboarding these clusters to Azure Arc, the operator can use Azure Policy to manage and enforce compliance configurations directly on these Kubernetes clusters.

Answer: Answer

Answer

True
Azure Arc extends Azure Resource Manager (ARM) capabilities, allowing organizations to apply Azure Policy and manage compliance for Kubernetes clusters and servers operating in external, on-premises, or multi-cloud environments.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the scenario infrastructure
The operator has Kubernetes clusters running locally in physical substations (outside Azure).
To determine which hybrid management solution is appropriate.
2
Evaluate the capabilities of Azure Arc
Azure Arc registers non-Azure resources (like external Kubernetes clusters) into the Azure Resource Manager (ARM) plane.
To verify if Azure Arc supports managing external Kubernetes clusters.
3
Evaluate policy application capabilities
Once registered via Azure Arc, these clusters can be target resource scopes for Azure Policy, enforcing governance and compliance configurations.
To confirm if Azure Policy can be applied to govern the clusters as stated in the scenario.
